Episode Overview
Starting a company and growing a company require the same core element: courage. Fear can cripple a company’s ability to plan for the future and have the discipline to act on plans or strategies. In this episode we talk with someone who cuts through the fear and the BS that is keeping you from realizing your sales, business, entrepreneurial dreams using a revolutionary business planning system.
Jill Young implements the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) in Texas where she helps guide business people away from fear and towards dollars.
